[The content of this post is probably going to be a dead giveaway, considering things like mannerisms, the question enclosed... all of that. But it's worth a shot, isn't it?]

[Worth a shot without troubling too many people who are already bothered enough with current events.]



Those of you who weren't human beings before your arrival here...

Have you had much issue adjusting? Even years after your waking in this world? Or any issue at all.

Things perhaps you had stopped considering, until events have brought them back to light.



Feel free to keep your anonymity, if you wish.

Oh I for sure had a hard time adjusting, eh? This kinda shape is so different from the way I was before, I feel like I had to learn how to walk all over again!

I like to think I've adjusted pretty well by now though. But sometimes... no, most times, I still really miss how I am back home. Even as neat as this is, I still feel like I'm stuck in an alien body, up here in Outer Space.

Your shape? May I ask what was so different?

You are the first to admit they miss how they used to be. Are humans unfamiliar to you?

[gobetween]

Oh I can answer those together! Humans are definitely unfamiliar to me, because I'm a Fraggle. We live underground, pretty far from humans except for maybe a tunnel or two that leads up; no one's ever gone out there on their side though, except for my Uncle Matt.

Fraggles are... Well, I dunno how to explain us, really! We're small and furry, kinda vaguely human-shaped? But with snouts and tails. So when I first wound up here, oh man was it a huge learning curve at first. I'm STILL getting used to all the weird differences between humans and Fraggles.

[sassymaru]

Ahh I see. I'm familiar with the term. Another one of your number is here as well, correct? But I don't think I've heard a description yet.

[Granted, he hasn't really asked, but that was mostly because the one other he'd met seemed to be on the anxious side.]

I suppose I feel similarly. I'm not at all used to being a human being whatsoever. It's... disorienting, even years later.
